Essential Graphics make random transformations

Hello, I'm using the latest version of After Effects 2025 (Windows 11, 64 bit).

 

I'm using essential graphics to create a faux coin 3D spin controlled by a slider connected to the essential graphics. When I duplicate the layer (the coin comp) in the main composition and animate the essential property "slider" of the individual instances, they do not follow the values of the keyframes properly, the coins make random movements. I know it is a bug because when I create new layers or change the label color, the animations of the coins change randomly.

 

If you watch the ReportError.gif you will find that random transformation when the coins should be still.

 

In the Screen.png you will notice that all the properties have the same values but in the viewer, you see the wrong movement.

 

This is not the first time this bug has happened to me, essential graphics seem to not work properly with a lot of instances.

 

Any solution?

Thanks for writing in. Could you share the steps to reproduce the issue on my end? It would be even better if you could share a project file that repeats the issue. Feel free to share it via DM if you do not want to share it publicly.

Looking forward to your response.


Thanks,
Nishu
